And that, my friends, is how you start seeds. I’m super duper excited about this since this is my first time starting my own plants. It was very easy, and seems to be working well – I planted these on Wednesday and I already have sprouts. The boxes I’m using are by Jiffy – I got them at Home Depot for a very good price, and I would definitely recommend them. After planting my seeds I left them overnight with the lids on, per the instructions, and when I went back the next day to check on them, they were nice and steamy under the lid. I know they’re staying warm at night, and not drying out, although I expect I’ll have to add water in a day or two. I got two sizes – several with the smaller pellets like you see above, and then two that had larger pellets for my tomatoes. It took mine 30-45 minutes to absorb all the water and fluff up completely, so be prepared for a little wait if you use these, but I quite like them and will probably buy the pellet refills and continue using them.

I’m having Easter house guests this weekend, so I’ll be cooking something wonderful (I hope!) and visiting with my family. I hope all of you have a wonderful Easter, as well, and a beautiful weekend!
